DepunCiatiOn of the Utah COmmissiOn

SALT LAKE CITY, U. T., July THE Tribune
says that great indignation Is expressed by
Americans at the action of a majority of the
Utah Commission in their answer given to-day,
to the Mormon State makers, in which they
agree, without authority of law, to
be the medium of submitting to the
voters of Utah the constitution now
under process of construction. Steps have
been taken by business men-Democrats
and Republicans-to protest to the government
and people of the United States against the
wrong and indignity which this action of the
commission places upon them. Public meetings
here and throughout the Territory will be held
to express American opinion upon this subject.
Prominent in this movement is Ex-Governor
Murray, R. n Boskin. r. &. Chambers Walter
Almy, George Nj. Scott John |. Scott G. p. Ma

the constitutional convention completed and
adopted its constitution TO-DAY. The planks al
ready mentioned in these dispatches regarding
bigamy and polygamy, representation for mi
norlty, and separation of church and state were
adopted, with others The vote of the people
will be taken in August Only those who have
taken the test oath" will vote the ratifca-
ton.

The situation in the Coke Region.

PITTsBURG, July THE coke operators have
decided to post another notice throughout the
region, Notifying the strikers that they will be
given until next Saturday to return to work at
the old rate of wages. Those who do
not resume work by that time will
be evicted from the company's houses,
and will be imported from New
York to take their places. The works, which
started yesterday, were in operatior. to-day with
an increased force of workmen. aud the operat-

THE BUSINESS PROCEEDINGS

Musical Subjects Discussed, Resolutions
Adopted and Officers Elected Yesterday.
The attendance at the morning session of the
convention was very largs-said to be the largest
that has attended any meeting of the association.

this division the first paper read was by Kari
Merz, of Wooster, o., editor of Brainerds Mu-
steal World, of Cleveland, in which Mr.. Merz
discussed ''Schopenhauers Metaphysical The
cries" The paper was exceedingly interesting
in its explanation of Sohopertauer's peculiar
views. The Bible speaks of music in heaven,
but not of the other arts. In writing music
genius does not labor so much with intellect; it
succeeds by inspiration. Writing music is
looked upon more mysterious than cutting
marble painting canvas. When musicians
attempt to initiate sounds or situations, they re-
duce music and do not elevate it. Poor music
represents shallow sentiment. and is bound to
die Musicians dwell too much in the realm of
sentiment. and too little in the realm of thought

Music in tho Air.

The Hoosier capital has never in its history
extended her inequalities to a more cultured as
semblage of artists than present at the Music
Teachers National Convention. Every other
topic, not excepting natural gas and the new
cable railway, have given way before the subject
of music. In the hotels, in the family circle, on
the streets, everywhere. there's music in the air.
With all Difference to other instruments In use
opinion only TO the superiority of the cele-
brated Chickering piano. Its wonderful sweet
ness of tone, its volume and sir ging qualities at
caught the cultured ear, and delieh ted the
senses of the audience.
Its voice is almost human" said Madame
surpass it shall never cease my longing to
reach heaven"
SAID another prominent artist: "The CHECKER
ing is the acme of perfection in musical instru-
ments" There is no question about that"
replied his comrades in chorus at the hotel table
at the Denison On all sides the same opinion
prevails among the leading musicians. Such
learn in what estimation the leading pianos of
the country held and this testimony of ex-
perts ought to go far towards enlightening the
public, if it really needed any upon this PROPOSE
ton. If it were possible to get expression
from all the artists present, the result would be
entirely satisfactory the Chickering people,
especially if the words of commentator which
fall here and the re from the groups of musicians
are a criterion from which to Judge. A large
majority of the most distinguished artists are
partial to the Chickering and using it.
The parlor at the Den;son occupied by Mr..
Gilderneester, of the firm of Chickering & Sons
has been thronged during the entire convention.

The concerts were fairly patronized when the
season is taken into consideration. Had the fes-

would have been no call upon the guarantors to

Not the least interesting feature of the festival
fs the discovery that in the orchestra OF Mr..
Wan der Stucken we have body of disciplined
players but little inferior to the famous orches-
tras of Thomas and Gerriche 1t is case of
three blades Of grass where only two grew be-

increase in verdure is SO young that there is
every reason TO anticipate a great future for
him. That he is q good musician has been
proven in his own compositions played the other
evening, and that he is an intelligent
efficient and careful conductor his whole
management of the festival has shown.
The orchestral matinees bring out these quail
ties int peculiar prominence, inasmuch as they
deal with compositions belonging to the regular
repertory of the band, whereas nearly every
thing played at the evening concerts has been
pew, and many of them have been hastily re-
hearsed. 1t is a pity that the matinees have not
been more generally advertised, for the public

THE FEAST OF MUSIC.

Intelligent and Impartial Criticisms of the
Various Performances Yesterday.
At yesterday mornings session OF the NJ T.
N A convention, after very fine performance
on the organ by Mr.. Herve D. Wilkins. of Roch-
ester who played a solo by Guilmant. Madame
Fanny Bloomfe cid Zeisler, Of Chicago, gave an
exhibition OF her remarkable pianstic powers
and aroused the liveliest enthusiasm in her au-
dience which eliminated in an ovation. Mad
anne Bloomfield is a pianiste by the grace OF
God, as our German friends say, and controls
her instrument like the artistic she is. Her first
number was the andante spiniata and polonaise
OPP. %, of Chopin, which was taken at a terrific
tempo, but wi tn a verve. veor and clearness that
was absolutely electrifying A capriccio dedi-
Gated to the fair concertgiver by
Arthur Foote, of Boston, is q clever
bit Of writing which is bound to be popular A
ravotte, by Wilson q. Smith, the talented COM
poser OF Cleveland, made an instant impression,
as it is sterling specimen of this somewhat
overdone form. Madame Bloomfield played it
ia a broad. massive style that contrasted finely
with the delicate scherzo of Mendelssohn. which
given in a bewilderingy dainty fsshion.
When the Twelfth Rhapsodie of Liszt wae played
tho house fairly rose at Madame Bloomfield and
demanded an encore, which was generously
spondei to- The brilliant "Contrabandsta," of
Schrrmann Tausie, was magnifcently played.
Madame Bloomfield combines all styles in her
playing. which eau at times be almost volcanic
IN its fiery intensity But one always feels,
despite the tremendous technic and energy of
her playing. dominating and powerful intellect.
The piano with her is full of color and life, and
her interpretations both very subtle and
very broad. In the writer's opinion, Madame
Bloomfield is the most talented pianist in
America, and her playing charged with pas
sion and splendor, will place her, when she has
ultimately mellowed and toned down, in the
ranks of the worlds greatest pianists.
The spring sextet of Johann II. Beck, OF
Cleveland, played at the afternoon session, was
carefully listened to by a large audience. This
sextet, both on account of the novelty Of the
form and the name of the composer, has at
tracted much curiosity Mr. Beck is very
young man, a Lepsic graduate, and thinker,
and is full Of promise in the future. The sex
tet is a ripe production, full OF flowing melo-
dies and beautiful Developments. The compost
tion as a whole, mpresses one il serious man
uer. IL is thoughtful work and full of poetic
well scored. The middle movement is the best,
the scherzo extremely clever and the last move
ment shows the most work Brahms and
Dvorak have given US specimens of this form
and il reflects credit the energy and talent of
Mr.. Beck to write such purely classical music.
The sextet was played with intelligence by the
Detroit Philharmonic Club.
